JOHN THE MERCENARY
CHAPTER 009 - YOU HAVE A CIGARETTE?
The car carrying Deny was escorted by several other paspampres cars located at the front and rear.
“What's my schedule today?” ask Deny to the driver.
“Yes, Sir. The next morning, you have a meeting with the National Parent Association.”
“Unfortunately with the traditional market committee, the afternoon is a press conference, the evening with a young congressman, then..”.
“Gosh. You'll kill me if you keep this up.”
Deny cut off the chauffeur's speech telling her schedule.
“You must attend all of this, Sir.”
“Good. It's up to you.”
Deny turned to Sam who was sitting next to her.
“Chairman Sam.”
“Ya, Mr.”
“You have a cigarette?”
Sam pressed the earphones in his ear and told all the cars escorting Deny to stop in a quiet place.
“Everything. Let's pause in a quiet place.”
“Good, Sir.”
All answered in unison, as Sam gave the order, as did Deny's driver.
Arriving in a quiet place, all the cars stopped, including the PASGA squad car which also escorted Deny.
It was seen Jack as the leader of the PASGA team, standing swiftly with his members to keep watch.
“Pak, the atmosphere of sudan is safe in this car, and the people who guard there can be trusted”
Sam took out a cigarette and gave it to Deny.
Deny told his driver to leave him and wait outside.
Only Deny and Sam were in the car.
“You know why he's so temperamental, don't you?”
Deny asked Sam about his wife while lighting a cigarette with a lighter.
“Yes. I know that, Mr.”
Sam just nodded his head.
“Then, what about Anna, my own son?”
“Thank God then.”
“Young Miss is still the same as before. He still has a social phobia. You better see him, Mr.”
Sam suggests that Deny go see Anna, her own biological child.
“You know I can't do it now, Sam.”
Sam was only silent because it was true, Deny could not meet Anna because Agnes was his current wife.
“I'm so pathetic, aren't I?”
Deny smokes a cigarette deeply, then exhales it again.
“Chairman Sam.”
“Ya, Mr.”
“You're working full time on Agnes. But I'm the one who will be the mayor.”
“Of course, Sir,” says Sam.
“I will appoint you to be the head of security in my office later.”
“Until then, the only person I can trust to Anna is you.”
“Maybe I'm a pathetic and useless father, and I know how much my daughter hates me.”
“But still, he's the only reason why I'm forced to obey Agnes all the time.”
Sam only listened carefully, as Deny poured out her heart.
“Meet the woman and deliver my message. If the hostage dies, the hostage-taker will also die.”
“If anything happens to my daughter, everything Agnes has done in her lifetime, I will destroy it myself.”
“I won't deliver your message, Sir. Instead, I will protect your daughter no matter what,” Sam said solemnly.
“Thanks, Chairman Sam.”
Sam lowered his head a little.

During the day, John was still walking, without knowing the direction of his destination.
John has reached a village and tries to ask for a ride on every passing car.
But no car would stop. John Pin had to keep walking.
Sweat splashed on John's forehead and body, which soaked the inner t-shirt he was wearing at the time.
